Innocence

poem by KC writer Joni Wilson aka Amenimity

Again in the deep end I go

Too far in

Too far away to help me

Or save me from what I get into

Again in the waste I go

Too far away

Too far in to help me

Or to save me from what I get into

Why I need it

Why I do it

Why I need it

Why I use it

Why I need it

Why I abuse it

You analyze my uselessness

You distract me clearly

And I can take it, barely

I require my hopelessness

Again in the deep in I loose my mind

Drowning myself

Drowning all that I’ve come to know

Just help me from what my fingers crave

Again in the waste I suffocate

Drowning myself

Drowning all that I’ve come to grow

Just help me from what my tendencies crave

Why I need it

Why I do it

Why I need it

Why I use it

Why I need it

Why I abuse it

Come take my hand

Come take my life

Yeah, you take me away

Come take my innocence

And burn my eyes

Yeah, you drift me away

Why I need it

Why I do it

Why I need it

Why I use it

Why I need it

Why I abuse it
